Full Description
This exam focuses on the biochemical mechanisms underlying nucleic acid replication, emphasizing the roles of DNA polymerases, helicases, and primases in both DNA and RNA synthesis.
Understanding the replication mechanisms is essential for the study of cellular proliferation, genetic fidelity, and mutagenesis. Insights into these processes have profound implications for fields such as cancer research and genetic engineering.
Students will be tested on their ability to articulate the steps of nucleic acid replication and the functional contributions of various enzymes involved in this essential process.
Candidates may also be asked to discuss the regulatory aspects of replication and how errors in this process can lead to significant biological consequences.
Sample Questions
- What are the primary roles of DNA polymerases in replication?
- How do helicases facilitate the process of DNA replication?
